ABOUT THE ARTWORK
The piece with a silver halo as used in Christian art of the 5th century, idealizes an ethnic, Ceylonese girl recreated from an etching, into a work of art that is reminiscent of a retouched ‘Giottoesque ‘fresco. It is ironic in the sense that a halo is used to glorify an ordinary, woman, but at the same time it glorifies our culture and our past. The subtle rough, uneven black paint around the figure that is created by layering oil paint over silver leaf, is meant to give the impression of a retouched old painting on rough wood.
